What is organ meat?
Organ meat (also called offal) is the organs and other parts of an animal besides the muscle meat, such as liver, heart, kidneys, spleen, bone marrow, brain and testicles. Traditional peoples valued exactly these parts the most: they were often eaten first or saved for pregnant women, children and the elderly. This way of eating, using the whole animal, is called nose-to-tail eating.
Why organ meat in capsules?
Fresh organ meat is hard to find and the taste isn't for everyone. Capsules solve both. We freeze-dry the organs at low temperature: the water is removed and the composition of the organ is preserved as well as possible. We fill the fine powder into capsules without fillers, so you know exactly how much organ meat you take each day.

What to look for in organ meat supplements
- Origin: choose organs from grass-fed cattle. Our cattle graze on the pastures of New Zealand.
- Processing: freeze-drying happens at low temperature and is gentler than drying with heat.
- Purity: no fillers, binders or other additives in the capsule.
- Transparency: a clear dosage per capsule, so you know what you are taking.
How to use organ meat capsules
Follow the recommended daily amount on the label, usually 3 to 6 capsules a day, with water and preferably with a meal. You can start with a lower amount and build up gradually. Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medication? Consult your doctor first, especially for liver products.
Frequently asked questions about organ meat
Is organ meat in capsules as good as fresh organ meat?
Freeze-drying only removes the water, without heating the organ. As a result, the composition is largely preserved.
Which product should I start with?
If you want one product, the Beef Organ Mix is a good start: it combines four organs in one capsule. Looking specifically for liver, bone marrow, brain or testicles? Choose the single organ.
Can I combine different organ meat supplements?
Yes. Stick to the recommended daily amount per product, and when combining with liver, keep an eye on your total liver intake.
Where do the cattle come from?
Our beef organs come from grass-fed cattle in New Zealand, a country with strict standards for animal welfare and food safety.
